Bah. Grip the Katana as firmly as possible, and attack it.

I gripped my katana in both hands and swung it at the door with all my might. As I did, everything seemed to suddenly go into needless slow-motion. The katana swam through the normally dormant air with a loud whistle above the faint whoosing noises obligatory to cool slow-mo. It hit the wall with a might clang, letting loose a few sparks and rivets as the tought metal bend backwards. My arms vibrated with the sound, and for a moment I thought I was about to die because I realized that everything going slow while your death unstoppably comes to you is a very dramatic and classy way to go. Then everything went normal and I dazedly felt the now very dented and somewhat cut wall.

Feeling the katana blade for damage, I concluded that it was in need of quite a bit of sharpening. It seemed to be rather chipped and very slighly twisted where it had hit the door. Stupid bargin generic katanas.

Rocks for sale.

You can use these if you want. Yes they are transparent. I can make more if needed as well.

Is the wall cut enough to pass? If not, try to throw the rock against the cut as powerfully as possible, then pick it up again.
...and disregard Blacky. We don't want to hurt poor Shuri even more.

A first aid kit won't help against something as banal as a "hurty foot". And throwing rocks against a metallic surface is generally more effective than using your bare foot. Shuri isn't even wearing shoes, I think.

I picked up a rock and threw it at the wall as hard as I possibly could. It bounced off and landed somewhere on the other end of the room.

@acid: Thanks. I'll use it once they keep a rock in their inventory without using it immediatly.

Don't.

Instead, check the wall for different levels of thickness or consistency... I'm not sure whether that was the right word. ..hardness?
And, naturally, pick up a new rock. A pretty one plz

I found another rock (the prettiest-feeling rock I could find, not that that means anything) and pocketed it. I briefly considered bashing my valuable first aid kit into the wall then realized that was an idiotic idea. I carefully examined the wall for weak spots and found that the most fragile point was where I had bent and bruised it with my katana, unsurprisingly.

Lem? I'm surprised.

I smashed the wall with the largest rock I could pick up, then found another rock. I was beginning to get frustrated at how very little effect these rocks were having.

MSB's decision seemed rational at the time.

Use the rocks to straighten out the katana.

Try to recall whether there had been any places in this dungeon where something was written anywhere. If there aren't any, go south and examine the air vent to the east. To check whether it's readily accessible or not.

I tried to think if I had seen any other writing, but I couldn't remember anything. I went south and after a few minutes of searching found the air vent. Examining it, I found that it would be just large enough for a me to fit through, if I would be so reckless as to do so.

As I climbed down from the air vent, my foot landed on a plaque on the floor.

Pray to the powers of the great DM Risp not to let something really evil happen in said air vent that would require us to restart from the last save point. Don't mind the weird thought and wonder who that "Risp" is, since now that you're all alone in a dark hole underneath the earth, you might as well listen to the voices for some company. Crawl through the air vent.

Sigh and use NINJA SKILLS to meditate and get a clear head.
Read what it says on the plaque you pulled off the wall you tried to demolish. Examine it thoroughly, especially for possible ways of restoring the unreadable text.
Also, try to remember what time of day it was when you entered the maze and how much time has passed since then, or, more specifically, what time it is now. Although that might be hard to remember, having fallen unconscious a lot and stuff.

I tried to clear my mind and meditate, but found all the junk in it was too much and just metaphorically brushed it under the carpet.
I tried to read the notice but there wasn't enough light for it.
I could not remember what time of day it was.

For the record, remember that it said "This underground maze has been found in violation of dungeon-building code 2-A and is scheduled for demolition on".
Go try to examine that plaque you stepped on and read it. Wonder why you failed to remember doing so and blame it on the voices.

I was unable to read the plaque and futilely poked at it for a while until I noticed it had an inscription underneath the words in Braille. Though my skills in reading it were out of date, after a few minutes I managed to decode it. It said 'Save Point'.

I stared at the 'save point' for a moment. Though that Spotty fellow may have been trying to kill me, he did have a point. Save points are a nonsensical concept, and I did not believe in their so-called abilities.

Try to enter the vent.

Or while you're at it, enter it.

I stepped forward and climbed up onto the vent. As I did so I noticed the plaque seemed not to be there under my feet anymore. Odd.
I crawled through the vent, feeling slightly panicked for no good reason. Was it a sudden case of claustrophobia? Was it the stuff air here? Was it my sore arm? ...wait, sore arm? I checked my left arm and found a small puncture mark there. I began to feel my panic was well founded, my body beginnig to twitch and spasm. As poison rushed through my dying body I...

...suddently snapped back into reality. I was standing mid-climb, over where the save point had once been (or had I imagined that?), left with only disjointed memories of the last few moments and a strange feeling of panic...

*sigh*

Try to carefully check what's inside the vent. It's probably too dark for that.

now I am SUSPICIOUS (even though I didnt read risps original post =P). Makes me think she's either permanently dead, or alive because of a future plot event (maybe she's working for me or something. heh.
